Juncker calls for swift endorsement of EU budget

“Time is money. Delays in agreeing #EUBudget would cost 5000 research jobs for every single month that we do not agree & up to 600,000 Erasmus places in 2021 alone. Would jeopardise crucial infrastructure projects & Ignalina nuclear power plant decommissioning” said president of the European Commission Jean-Claude Juncker after the Informal Summit of the EU leaders in Brussels.
